Bonanza Shortline of the West

51 minutes

A 51 minute documentary of the V&T RR which presents the history of this famous silver and gold hauling railroad that possessed some very unique 19th century locomotives and cars well into the 20th Century. Produced by Bill Warrick, this program presents the history of the V&T with very rare motion picture film and still plus interviews with officials from the California State RR Museum, Nevada State Museum and others. It also includes preserved V&T locomotives and cars that still operate today. The line, made famous by Lucius Beebe, Ted Wurm and Hollywood filmmakers, was once America's richest short line.

This is a great video documentary that all admirers of the V&T should have in their libraries.
